HISTORY

China Coin Seed is derived from Euphorbia marginata, a species known for its decorative foliage and seed forms. Originally cultivated for its ornamental qualities, the plant’s seed-bearing branches gained popularity in floral design for their sculptural form and long-lasting nature. Its unique silhouette and coin-like clusters became a favored accent in modern arrangements, valued for bringing structure and visual rhythm without overwhelming other blooms

Climate: Warm, temperate to subtropical climates

GROWING CONDITIONS

China Coin Seed grows best in full sun with light, well-draining soil. Minimal watering is needed once established, as the plant is drought-tolerant. Pruning after seed formation encourages new branching, and careful handling of stems preserves their fine, wiry texture. For cut use, stems should be harvested when seed pods are firm and evenly green to ensure maximum vase life.

Symbol: Prosperity, balance, and natural harmony

USES

Ideal for adding textural interest and movement, China Coin Seed works beautifully as a filler in hand-tied bouquets, minimalist ikebana arrangements, or sculptural floral displays. Its clean green tone complements both soft pastel blooms and bold modern palettes, providing contrast and structure while maintaining a light, airy feel. It is also prized for its longevity and ability to dry beautifully for long-term decorative use.
